SEEED JobsForLife – an opportunity

Conceptualised by Dato’ Anusha Santhirasthipam, this programme of 12 Saturdays is an exciting and empowering programme for youths to succeed in finding their dream vocation! This is a unique opportunity for anyone who may be unsure of their career, how to start their business or how to land that job.

Over 3 cycles of 4 Saturdays per cycle, SIPJ will bring the best of their experience from their award-winning programmes Youth Against Social Ills (YASI), Supporting Hope in Education (SHINE) and Kampung Ku (KK).

Participants consist of Malaysian youth who are currently not in employment, within the age range of 18-25.

Throughout the 3 cycles, we invited consultation & feedback. At the end of the programme, all participants will receive a certificate of completion. After the end of the programme, we will also track their progress over the next 6 months to 1 year.

There was no charge for participants to attend this programme, which was fully funded by sponsors and a grant from Agensi Inovasi Malaysia.

In addition, all participants received a free T-shirt and folder for their worksheets, which were sponsored by Gaea. Lunch and two tea breaks are included.

Terms & Conditions:

1. Participants who are accepted on the programme MUST commit to attend all Saturdays for the duration of the programme.

2. Participants agree to have their participation recorded via photographs or video for the duration of the programme.

3. This programme does not guarantee a job at the end of the programme although SIPJ will commit to doing our best to help you get an internship or placement.

This afternoon, a few SIPJ ladies gathered for a tutorial on how to use Google apps to organise emails, photos and documents, big and small. With great patience and humor our club President Elmarie helped us navigate the many layers of Google, which has become the crutch of the world. Thank you Elmarie for dragging dinosaurs like me to the world of today. Only reservation I have is Google being caught up in the Trump-Huawei showdown. Will this mean we will soon need to master another new kid on the block... China's very own Noodle? ... See MoreSee Less

Last night May 8, SIPJ inducted a new member - 27-year old Henin Tong, a lawyer. And with that, the average age of the club tumbled. Yay! Henin was taken up by her introducer Siew Yong Gnanalingam, known for her persuasive skills and passion for community service, the foundation of the club. Henin proves our youth are also looking for ways to making lives more meaningful for others, and found this is what is being done with our SPOT program (pre-pubescent students), SEEED (youth training for job market) and the impending SHINE program, to improve parenting skills. With these projects, SIPJ covers many bases and demographics. Welcome Henin... and look forward more 20-somethings to make ours a truly intergeneratioanal club of varied voices. ... See MoreSee Less

What a wonderful group of women. Joining SIPJ was one of the best decisions I've made as an expatriate living in Malaysia. After being introduced to SIPJ and their "Seed for Life" Programme in my role as CEO of MCII, I was immediately interested in getting involved in such a meaningful organisation. I was so impressed by the sense of purpose, sisterhood and inclusion that I experienced during the first business meeting I attended that I decided then and there to join as a member.

SIPJ has a number of very illustrious members - charter members who were pioneers in the SI Malaysia movement, past and current SISWP presidents, business women who have made their mark and very excitingly, many young members joining us. The beauty of it all is that in SIPJ there is no sense of hierarchy or elitism. I think the four musketeers would have been proud of us since we indeed personify their slogan "All for one and one for all".

We have a history of award-winning programmes and trend-setting initiatives and are all committed relentlessly to the empowerment of women and making the world a kinder and better place. ... See MoreSee Less
